This first week brought so much JOY! Kinders learning letters 😍 @MrsBarnesKDG @PondElem The Bad Seed earrings @edVENTUREwHAYES @PrincipalRM Classroom library Grand Opening! 📚 ❤️ @NathanmBauer @BowlesPrincipal
Learning how to put our students in the driver’s seat to do the heavy lifting during small group work while we scaffold, promote independence and coach for transfer. @tcrwp @LitROCK_taylor @rsdk5ela
Kicking off our summer Home Grown Institutes with our K-8 teachers and @tcrwp. Excited for a week of learning, growing, collaborating and celebrating our writers! #rsdwtg @LitROCK_taylor @rsdk5ela
Just got the word that our proposal, Finding the Light in all Students through Conferring, was accepted for #NCTE 2022! I can’t wait to connect, share, and learn from an amazing ELA community this fall 📚 📝 @LitROCK_forth @rsdk5ela
These kinders spent some time connecting phonemic awareness to writing as they used their @HeggertyPA “choppers” to segment sounds as they added new labels to their classroom @NicoleReginaCl1 @GeggieElem
On conferring- When we ask about the book, we’re turning the conference into a worksheet 🚫 When we ask about the reader & their process we recognize the work that they are doing & make it transferable ✅ @drgravityg @ReneeDHouser #TCRWP #SaturdayReunion #RSDreading

Mr Snider & his phonics sidekick Gus are helping these 2nd graders tackle tricky homophones. Word-solving, vocabulary and editing work all in one lesson! @WoertherPrin @rsdk5ela
Collaboration ✅ Community-building ✅ Phonemic awareness ✅ Shared writing ✅ Letter/sound knowledge ✅ Building sight word knowledge ✅ Stopped by this classroom and had to do a double take. These are kindergartners…on day 2! 🤯❤️ @FairwayElem
I spy first graders clapping syllables, looking at word parts and talking about what they notice about words. Connecting phonics knowledge to their everyday lives…words are everywhere!

Day 3 and already looking like professional writers. ❤️ ❤️ Amazing what can happen when a school commits to building consistency across grade levels. Can’t wait to see the stories these authors write this year!
